John Hunt's AP Top 25 ballot: After Saturday scares, Sunday brings few changes

The Oregon Ducks very well could fall to No. 2 in the BCS when the standings are released this evening, after the Ducks' 15-13 scare in Berkeley.

Now, nobody can keep track of all the mathematical ins and outs of the BCS computers, but this we know about it:

1 = 2

In other words, finishing second in the BCS is every bit as good as finishing first, because the BCS may produce a myriad of mystery, but in the end, it spits out two teams that will play for the national title, and that's all it's good for.

Oregon is still No. 1 in my poll, though. Any thought of putting Auburn atop the poll evaporated when the Ducks finished off Cal with an 18-play drive.

Boise State slips back ahead of TCU, which had difficulty with San Diego State, which is a difficult team.

Other than that, a few teams shifted here and there, but no great happenings in the poll this week. I decided to keep Iowa barely on the ballot, but Utah didn't quite make the cut.
